San Diego BMW CCA autocross 4/28
Cancelled Qualcomm event management has told us that we will be unable to use the lot on our April 28th date. They have offered a make up date in May, which is being considered. The website and facebook will be updated once a decision is made.
More details for more Upcoming Events can be found on our Calendar page. - - - Spring Fling Autocross Registration open now Quote:
Spring Fling 2013 Autocross A day of tire-twisting fun awaits you on the SE Lot on April 28th! Online Registration is open from April 7th-23rd at MotorsportReg The first 20 non-BMWs to register are guaranteed a spot While we’ll have only one day to fling some springs this year, we guarantee you’ll have plenty of fun with us on April 28th at Qualcomm’s SouthEast Lot! Speaking of springs, Spring Forward means that we have another hour of daylight and another 20 open spots! Register early to reserve your spot. We will offer registration on-site if any openings are left, but there is no online waiting list and no guarantee that spots will be available. We’ll run rain or shine (if the lot is wet, we’ll let it slide). Now is a good time to thank BMW of South County for another full year of support for our Autocross program. With online registration, local drivers, long-distance travelers and non-BMW competitors can reserve their spot, so don’t miss it. You can register between April 7th-23rd. Online registration opens 3 weeks before the event and closes just a few days before. Don’t wait until the last minute because it’s still first-come, first-served (with no online waiting list) and we only have 80 spots. We’ll still offer registration on-site for any remaining slots. The $65 entry fee includes breakfast items, lunch and beverages. You can pay online if you register in advance at MotorsportReg,or register on site with cash or check if you wait. You must be a BMW CCA member to participate, and you can join online at BMW CCA in advance. Please print and bring your membership confirmation if you have not yet received your BMW CCA membership card. We check membership of all participants at the gate. Our Chapter autocross policy gives priority to members who are driving BMWs or MINIs. Members driving non-BMWs will be allowed to participate if space is available. If we still have openings after online registration, we will allow registration on-site on a first-come, first-served basis. REMEMBER: IF REGISTERED ONLINE, BRING PROOF OF MEMBERSHIP AND ARRIVE BY 7:30 (BEFORE ONSITE CUT-OFF) TO KEEP YOUR RESERVED SPOT NOTE: The helmet standard changed in January to require Snell 2005 or 2010 ratings. Check yours to be sure it’s up to date—rentals are available but limited. When you arrive:
6:30 AM Gates Open Car Classifications: 4C ALL 4 cylinder BMW models (except E30 M3)Stock classes permit any size wheel and tire; non-stock shock absorbers, bushings and strut braces; any brake pad material (brakes must be stock-size), any air filter or cold air intake or cat-back exhaust; and naturally-aspirated cars may use aftermarket engine management software. Tires must be 140 treadwear rated or higher in Stock. ANY other performance modification, including but not limited to springs, “R”-compound tires, and engine software for turbocharged/supercharged cars, puts the car in Modified. Non-DOT tires (i.e. slicks) on any car place it in Gold Class. All cars must be under a 92 dB noise level to be driven at Qualcomm - and we'll be checking. Our car classes are kept simple so we can use the honor system. Women drivers and Novices are classified based upon the car they are driving. We also award a Women's Class trophy to the woman with the fastest time, and two Novice trophies to the two fastest novices. This means women and novices will be eligible for multiple trophies. For example, a very fast novice could win a novice trophy and a trophy in his car class. Remember, you are only a novice for the first and second time you autocross, and if you win a trophy you are now a ringer, not a novice. QUESTIONS?

See you at Qualcomm Stadium! Last edited by satakal; 04-13-2013 at 04:37 PM.. Reason: event cancelled |
